Long time...

Almost a week since I wrote my last post. And in the meantime, I wrote about candies and being together and such alike. Was I not already feeling a 'lot like Christmas' the last week itself?

I found this beautiful Christmas tree on my friend Paula's blog and with due permission, am posting it here for you...

Hope you love it, and if you get inspired and want to post more Christmas photos, go here. That's the site from where Paula took her pic from. Dont forget the credits though! :)

Well, well... Yeah, Christmas is now not even a mile away and I am all charged up to celebrate the good weekend ahead.

I have planned to be with my family, eat good, sleep well and generally indulge myself a bit more than I usually do...

What about you? What are your Christmas plans? What's your Christmas tree like? Do let me know...

Of candies and sweetmeats...

I am fond of sweets and so was delighted to come across this photo on the new photo-sharing based social-networking site that I am frequenting these days.

The Fallen leaf

I was wondering the other day, how vital a fall is. Didn't gravity occur to Newton simply because an apple knocked off the tree and fell right on his head?!

Falling is important, folks!

As a child, I kept falling off the bike quite a few times. Many falls and quite a few bruises later, I was able to feel the ecstacy of riding a bike down a slope.

My girlfriend has this fancy for fallen leaves. She finds them simply too beautiful and too aesthetic. Aesthetics and a fallen yellow maple leaf?! I can't make head or tails out of it, but for her, it's something special...

To each, his own. As for now, I think i should just fall asleep. :D

Growing up, is it worth it?

Life was good. Back then, yes, life rocked.

Browsing thru the internet, I came across some great photos that drove me back to the ecstacies of my childhood.

The new races

I am hooked. Social networking sites are sprouting by the dozen and for people like me, who are blessed with a job with internet access and have nothing particular to do but write and churn out ideas about the economy of expressions, no other 'boom' could be better than the boom of social networking sites.

With the likes of facebook, orkut, yuwwie, friendster, flickr, 123bubbles, hi5, myspace, livejournal and so on, it's a plethora of choice for the internet community. Anyone who spends three or more hours on the net daily, can get to know the e-community in a much deeper, much personal and connected sense, than the casual net-surfer, who uses the net 'simply to check mails' or simply to brush up on socialising for anytime ranging for thirty minutes to an hour (but rarely more than that)

If you are one of those persons who spend more than three hours a day on the internet, you will probably know why the internet has come to be a 'community' from being a 'technology'. Surfing thru the net is like discovering one new street in the neighbourhood, finding one interesting pastry shop and bumping into another interesting coffee joint in the place you have stayed for over a decade. And soical networking sites, like the ones I have mentioned above, only work to make the daily discovery all the more exciting.

Yes, the internet experience comes as close to being akin to the real like, if you have enough time. It's not real, alright, but it's a beautiful, different world!

Till then,

Life's Good!
